This paper focuses on drilling fault diagnosis with the technology of information fusion based on neural network and Dempster-Shafer evidence theory. Neural network is used to process the drilling engineering data monitored from drilling on-site. The primary diagnosis results of drilling faults can be obtained by comparing the outputs of the neural network. And also the outputs of neural network are utilized to construct a basic probability assignment function (mass function) to assign a value of mass function for each type of drilling faults. The final fault diagnosis results will be achieved by using Dempster-Shafer evidence theory on decision level through further reasoning primary diagnosis results of neural network. The proposed method can in time discover the engineering data whether abnormal so that can diagnose and classify them, and will improve the accuracy of the drilling fault diagnosis.

The Dempster–Shafer evidence theory has been widely applied in the field of information fusion. However, when the collected evidence data are highly conflicting, the Dempster combination rule (DCR) fails to produce intuitive results most of the time. In order to solve this problem, the base belief function is proposed to modify the basic probability assignment (BPA) in the exhaustive frame of discernment (FOD). However, in the non-exhaustive FOD, the mass function value of the empty set is nonzero, which makes the base belief function no longer applicable. In this paper, considering the influence of the size of the FOD and the mass function value of the empty set, a new belief function named the extended base belief function (EBBF) is proposed. This method can modify the BPA in the non-exhaustive FOD and obtain intuitive fusion results by taking into account the characteristics of the non-exhaustive FOD. In addition, the EBBF can degenerate into the base belief function in the exhaustive FOD. At the same time, by calculating the belief entropy of the modified BPA, we find that the value of belief entropy is higher than before. Belief entropy is used to measure the uncertainty of information, which can show the conflict more intuitively. The increase of the value of entropy belief is the consequence of conflict. This paper also designs an improved conflict data management method based on the EBBF to verify the rationality and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Abstract To solve the difficulties in practice caused by the subjectivity, relativity and evidence combination focus element explosion during the process of solving the uncertain problems of fault diagnosis with evidence theory, this paper proposes a fault diagnosis inference strategy by integrating rough sets with evidence theory along with the theories of information fusion and mete-synthesis. By using rough sets, redundancy of characteristic data is removed and the unrelated essential characteristics are extracted, the objective way of basic probability assignment is proposed, and an evidence synthetic method is put forward to solve high conflict evidence. The method put forward in this paper can improve the accuracy rate of fault diagnosis with the redundant and complementary information of various faults by synthesizing all evidences with the rule of the composition of evidence theory. Besides, this paper proves the feasibility and validity of experiments and the efficiency in improving fault diagnosis.

In order to improve diagnostic accuracy and reduce the rate of misdiagnosis to the aircraft engine gas path faulty, the methods based on data-driven and information fusion are developed and analyzed. BP neural network (NN) and RBF neural network based on data-driven single gas path fault diagnosis method is introduced firstly. Design gas path performance estimators and the fault type classification for turbo-shaft engine. Then the gas path fused diagnostic structure based on D-S evidence theory and least squares support vector machine are developed. Comparisons of the turbo-shaft engine gas path fault diagnosis verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the gas path fault diagnosis based on information fusion.

To identify the hang, collision and drift faults of methane sensors, this paper presents a fault diagnosis method for methane sensors using multi-sensor information fusion. A methane concentration monitoring approximation model with multi-sensor information fusion is established based on generalized regression neural network (GRNN).The output of the neural network is compared with the measured value of the sensor to be diagnosed to obtain the variation curve of the residual error signal. Through the analysis of the variation tendency of the residual error signal, the fault status of a methane sensor could be determined based on a reasonable threshold. Through simulation comparison is applied between the two models of GRNN and BP neural network; verify the GRNN model is much more precise in the approximation of methane concentrations. Fault diagnosis for methane sensors using generalized regression neural network is effective and more efficient.

Aiming at the problem of the conventional vibration fault diagnosis technology with inconsistent result of a hydroelectric generating unit, an information fusion method was proposed based on the improved evidence theory. In this algorithm, the original evidence was amended by the credibility factor, and then the synthesis rule of standard evidence theory was utilized to carry out information fusion. The results show that the proposed method can obtain any definitive conclusion even if there is high conflict evidence in the synthesis evidence process, and may avoid the divergent phenomenon when the consistent evidence is fused, and is suitable for the fault classification of hydroelectric generating unit.
